    ELECTRIC SIX - DANGER! HIGH VOLTAGE

    A bizarre band and song, but it's a great riff and it reminds me of getting drunk and going to SNAFU in Rotherham. FIRE IN THE DISCO.

    Good news lads and lasses. Due to miscounting, we're actually further than I thought...

    NUMBER 172

    THE BEATLES - SHE LOVES YOU

    Pure pop perfection, written by two blokes who were made for each other. Never bettered.

    Play it yourself. That'll really freak people out!
    As an aside can I suggest 'Fall at your feet' Crowded House?

    Now here's one we will remember from the film Croc Dundee lol. Even Steve Wright tells us about it as well, in a smarmy DJ sort of way. ;)

    Making progress tonight.

    Middlesbrough have been brilliant.

    NUMBER 171

    CREEDANCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL - BAD MOON RISING

    John Fogarty was a bit of a cap end, but he wrote more bangers in a 3 year period than anyone who lives on my street. Then his badmates wanted to write songs, but they were crap so Foggy flew the nest. Anyway.

    TEENAGE FANCLUB - THE CONCEPT

    A joyous offering. Bizarre lyric, majestic chorus, and a guitar solo that could down a pint in one then finish yours for you. And that outro. Oooof.

    ELTON JOHN - STEP INTO CHRISTMAS

    I never think of Christmas songs as actual songs - they're just ******** that you play for 5 days a year. But this is great. He was probably coked up when he wrote the melody - but Taupin seemed to be sober when he did the lyrics. Either way it's a song and a half.

    Is there a way to extra like this?

    When I was at Uni, my housemates 18 year old sister came to visit, I was upstairs in my room playing this very loud, she came upstairs, knocked on my door and told me I had cool music taste. I felt ace.

    She married a marine and now presents on Armed Forces TV.
